40-50. (53 now) Around then you're old enough to have some gravitas, even if you don't try. People respect you automatically, which is weird.
You can still be in excellent shape and looking good. I kinda lucked out on that.
Bonus: If you have all your teeth and hair and are non-fat, the dating pool is smaller, but awesome. I was dating women I wouldn't have had a chance with when younger.
I am a lady, but had the same experience. Maybe a 5 as a 20 something, average in looks and the curvy short girls win the early rounds. Always had a few guys who thought I was the best thing they'd ever seen but not "majority attractive", understand? But just stayed in shape and waited, and, well, small don't fall so as a 50-something relatively much better looking. It was such a a surprise.
